Pre-Assignment Details

Significant events and approaches for the overall study
following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment

Core period was terminated due to early achievements of efficacy targets and patients who were receiving study drug and patients receiving placebo in double blind phase had option to continue into the extension phase to receive open label RAD001.

Reporting Groups

Description

RAD001 +BSC

The study drugs were self administered by the patients. Patients were instructed to take the study drug as specified in the protocol. Patients were instructed to take two tablets (5 mg each) by mouth every day. Tablets were to be taken one tablet after another with a glass of water, at the same time each day in a fasting state or with a light fat-free meal. If disease progression occurred at data cutoff of 28Feb2008, patients were unblinded and if they were receiving RAD001, they would discontinue the study. Otherwise, they would be given the option to continue in the extension open label phase of 2 tablets of RAD001 5mg by mouth every day.

Placebo + BSC / RAD001

Patients received matching placebo of RAD001 tablets twice a day along with Best Supportive Care. With the documented disease progression at data cutoff of 28Feb2008, the investigator could unblind the patient. If unblinded patient was receiving placebo treatment, they were given the option to continue in the extension open label phase of 2 tablets of RAD001 5mg by mouth every day.

Progressive Free Survival (PFS) in Patients Who Receive RAD001 Plus Best Supportive Care(BSC) Versus Patients Who Receive Matching Placebo Plus BSC [ Time Frame: Time from randomization to dates of disease progression, death from any cause or last tumor assessment reported between date of first patient randomized until 28Feb2008 cut of date. ]

Progression Free survival is defined as the time from randomization to the date of first documented disease progression or death from any cause. The primary statistical analysis of PFS was based on central radiological assessments using a one-sided stratified log-rank test. Radiological assessments: every 8 weeks (+/-1 week) during the first year and every 12 weeks (+/- 1 week) during the second year and thereafter and at the end of the study. Kaplan-Meier methodology was used to estimate the median PFS for each treatment group.

Measure Description

The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ) contains 30 items. These include a global health status/QoL scale, five functional scales, three symptom scales, and six single items. Global health status / QoL scale (QL), consisting of 2 questions each scored from 1 (very poor) to 7 (excellent), and with possible scores ranging from 2 to 14. Higher score indicates better functioning. Definitive deterioration by at least 10% is defined as a decrease in score by at least 10% compared to baseline, with no increase above this threshold observed during the course of the study. A single measure reporting a decrease of at least 10% is considered definitive only if it is the last one available for the patient. Time to definitive deterioration is the number of days between the date of randomization and date of assessment at which definitive deterioration is seen.

Measure Description

The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy – Kidney Symptom Index, Disease Related Symptoms (FKSI-DRS) is a set of items to assess symptoms experienced by patients with advanced kidney cancer. These symptoms include fatigue, pain, weight loss, dyspnea, cough, fever and hematuria. There were 4 response categories (1=Not at all, 2= A little, 3=Quite a bit, 4=Very much), sum of item responses can range from 0 to 36. "0"= severely symptomatic patient and the highest score is an asymptomatic patient. Definitive deterioration of the FKSI-DRS score was defined as a decrease by at least 2 units compared to baseline, with no later increase above this threshold observed during the study. A single measure reporting a decrease of at least 2 units was considered definitive only if it is the last one available for the patient. Time to definitive deterioration is the number of days between the date of randomization and the date of the assessment at which definitive deterioration is seen.
